scsi: lpfc: Fix driver release of fw-logging buffers
On driver termination, after the driver stops fw logging by writing a register on the chip, the driver immediately unmaps and frees the logging buffer, without confirming in any way that the chip has received the write and terminated the logging. As termination on the chip is not immediate, the chip may issue a dma request to the now unmapped dma buffer, resulting in a iommu fault. Change the driver to receive a confirmation that logging ahs been terminated. As the driver always issues an SLI reset with the device as part of shutdown, and as part of that is receiving confirmation that the reset is complete - the driver was modified to perform the write to disable fw logging prior to the SLI reset and only free the fw log buffer after the SLI reset is complete. That guarantees use of the fw log buffer is fully terminated when it is unmapped.
